Network ports

Assessing the network infrastructure for the identification of critical vulnerabilities has always been a challenging and time-consuming process. Thus, we have fine-tuned a small list of known network ports with their respective services in order to help penetration testers to quickly map through potential vulnerable services (TCP/UDP ports 1 to 65,535) using Kali Linux tools.

To get a complete and a more up-to-date list of all network ports, visit http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.

However, bear in mind that sometimes the applications and services are configured to run on different ports than the default ones, shown as follows:
